Sisters for cleaning and colouring please
« on: Wednesday 12 May 10 09:18 BST (UK) »
two sisters in the early thirties, 1930s that is. Very dark studio pic which we would love to see in colour. The smaller one cannot remember the colour of what she was wearing, which surprises me somewhat!

Regards, Ron    ;D   ;D   ;D

Hello Irene and Hippy,

You have transformed a dark,dull photo to these wonderful restorations. I am sure the sisters will be delighted.

Thanks Carolyn for burning the midnight oil. Much appreciated by me and the sitter on the right. She wonders if her mum was standing on the left of the photographer as her eyes are pointed in that direction. She says if there was a bubble above her head it would say..''why have they sat  me here and why is my mum standing over there?''

regards,Ron    :)   :)   :)   :)
